Abbreviations: GHG = greenhouse gas, LULUCF = land use, land-use change and forestry.
a
In accordance with the “Guidelines for the preparation of national communications by Parties included in Annex I to the Convention,
Part II: UNFCCC reporting guidelines on national communications”, at a minimum Parties shall report a ‘with measures’ scenario, and may
report ‘without measures’ and ‘with additional measures’ scenarios. If a Party chooses to report ‘without measures’ and/or ‘with additional
measures’ scenarios they are to use tables 6(b) and/or 6(c), respectively. If a Party does not choose to report ‘without measures’ or ‘with
additional measures’ scenarios then it should not include tables 6(b) or 6(c) in the biennial report.
b
Emissions and removals reported in these columns should be as reported in the latest GHG inventory and consistent with the emissions
and removals reported in the table on GHG emissions and trends provided in this biennial report. Where the sectoral breakdown differs from
that reported in the GHG inventory Parties should explain in their biennial report how the inventory sectors relate to the sectors reported in
this table.
c
20XX is the reporting due-date year (i.e. 2014 for the first biennial report).
d
In accordance with paragraph 34 of the “Guidelines for the preparation of national communications by Parties included in Annex I to
the Convention, Part II: UNFCCC reporting guidelines on national communications”, projections shall be presented on a sectoral basis, to the
extent possible, using the same sectoral categories used in the policies and measures section. This table should follow, to the extent possible,
the same sectoral categories as those listed in paragraph 17 of those guidelines, namely, to the extent appropriate, the following sectors
should be considered: energy, transport, industry, agriculture, forestry and waste management.
e
To the extent possible, the following sectors should be used: energy, transport, industry/industrial processes, agriculture,
forestry/LULUCF, waste management/waste, other sectors (i.e. cross-cutting), as appropriate.
f
Parties may choose to report total emissions with or without LULUCF, as appropriate.
